Wren House Garden & Shop

Wren House Garden & Shop The Little Shop with Original Handmade Art. No surprise as well for anyone that knows me that the finding is most often quite as much fun as the creating.

Valerie Speed
Textile Artist

As a quilter for many years I have always been an avid recycler of fabric for my quilts. So it is no surprise that my somewhat new obsession of wool, be it blankets or sweaters, finds me often in the thrift shops looking for such items, once loved, and now let go, to be found and loved again. Whether it's a branch of colourful birds or a single raven stitched in black

thread as if drawn, wool blankets and sweaters are redefined and hand stitched into vibrant one of a kind pillows, framed artwork or wall hangings. Joy and inspiration for me comes from the bird life around our property, children's books and Inuit art.
